Bust of a Woman with an Elaborate Coiffure
View through The Met
Black chalk (Rosso Fiorentino). Probably another hand reinforced minute passages with pen and brown ink adding also a tiny area of crosshatching within the hair arrangements. An early owner of the drawing (or an artist working for him) colored the background around the figure in brush and brown wash.
